Child killer asks judge for execution date
A man sentenced to death for the murder of a five-year-old boy is once again saying he's ready to die.
An execution date had been set for Larry Hatten two years ago but he filed an appeal. Now, Hatten has sent two letters to Judge Missy Medary asking that she waive all his appeals and set an execution date. In the first letter, he asks that an execution date be set no later than three months from when the court received his written request. He doesn't give a reason for his request but in that first letter he states he does not want to appear in court.
In a second letter sent last week, 42-year-old Hatten says he will do whatever the court requires, as long as he gets an execution date.
In 1995, Hatten shot and killed five-year-old Isaac Jackson on Sam Rankin Street while the boy was in bed with his mother.
